    Nitpicking

    I completely get your concern and that is a worry for me as well. I think we are playing our starters to run up the score and boost our NET rankings which factors in margin of victory against opponents. We have the record and resume, but sort of lack in NET ranking (58 going into today - similar...

    Gragg promises Collins extension

    Don't give Jon Rothstein any ideas with that saying!

    Game thread for Penn State vs. NU

    TVH was the third best player for NU last night in my mind. He also might be the best at knowing his role outside of Buie. He had a lot of big time rebounds and had some nice defensive plays for us. What makes him such a valuable player is how different he is from Nicholson. He was perfect for a...

    Love senior night!!! Thank you BB, CA, RB and RD.

    Wish they could've gotten the win last night, but the seniors should be proud of what they've done here and have had a remarkable final season that every NU fan will remember. Here's to more memories!

    Yes. We will be fine. I know it's easy to think the worst of outcomes with how we're doing but we are comfortably in. Let's just win some more games!

    Game thread for Penn State vs. NU

    Trust me man. I've been locked into the field this year because of us. There's a lot of other team this year that don't stack up to us regardless of if we lose out (I hope that's not the case). We are securely in. If we want to talk about our issues and what we need to fix... that's a different...

    12-38

    They were a SIX seed going into this game. It sucks they lost this game and the way it happened but man, we need to stop thinking the sky is falling.

    Stop. They were a 6 seed going into this game. In a nutshell, they lose to a Last Four Out team. I get that we've been "reeling" because this is our longest losing streak at three. We just need to respond. It sucks. I get it. We will securely be in the tournament without playing in Dayton. Look...

    12-38

    We missed a lot of relatively open shots. Audige, Beran, and Berry need to be better plain and simple. I still have hope in this team and feel lucky to watch them play in their second tournament but it was frustrating seeing how badly some of those misses were.

    Like it or not, NU will be ranked tomorrow

    I might be one of the few who though it was "whatever" that they weren't ranked going into the week. Maybe NU caught Purdue on a down day. After this week.. beating #14 Indiana and a very solid Iowa team, there is no doubt in my mind we get ranked. My bet is #18.

    Demps breaks down the win on BTN

    Wow, while the basketball team is improving, so is Demps as an analyst. He has improved so much over the course of the season. Seems more confident and able to get his thoughts across clearer. Very insightful stuff from him in this video!

    Going Dancing!!!

    Haha, yes definitely. My brain is hardwired to go through the doomsday scenario. I don't think it will be a close call at all on selection day. Let's keep racking up Ws.

    Going Dancing!!!

    Look at the bubble teams right now and stack up our resume against theirs. We blow every single one out of the water. 7 Quad 1 wins, 6-2 record on the road. 10-5 record in the B1G, the second toughest conference according to Kenpom (conference record isn't an important factor but it feels good...

    Game thread for No. 14 Indiana vs. NU

    They can't compute losing to a team picked 13th in the conference when their team had such high aspirations going into the season. It's glorious.

    Game thread for No. 14 Indiana vs. NU

    I'm seeing a lot of "I used to root for Northwestern, but this team is really hatable and dirty." From Indiana and Purdue fans. Hm, maybe you just don't like them because they swept y'all?
